ROY LICHTENSTEIN Whaam!Recycled Bag

Roy Lichtenstein’s Whaam! uses bold colors and Ben-Day dots to depict an explosion, mirroring our emotional numbness towards violence in media. This iconic diptych critiques modern warfare and popular culture by contrasting dramatic content with a commercial style. The recycled tote bag featuring this artwork captures this tension between violence and detachment. ©Estate of Roy Lichtenstein/DACS 2024.Tate London
